/* I haven't tried your suggestions as yet, but I have to thankyou for the
thorough description you gave on the process. I am eager to try your method.
*/
It has worked for us. Animator Studio's onionskinning abilities will no doubt
be superior, but features have never been a substitute for techniques around
our office. 🙂
/* I was wondering, have you used this method long? Or do you use some other
piece of software for your pencil tests and then import into autodesk? I was
wondering because it sounded like you used this method in the past. */
We've used it for about 3 years.
/* I have used my scanner as you suggested but registration is a bit
cumbersome. */
It is.
/* I noticed you said you used a stylus and tablet, I just ordered one tonight
it's 6×9 (which is smaller than I am used to but they didn't have the 12×12 and
it was $$$$) with 1270 lpi and 120 pressure levels. Is it really difficult to
use the stylus and tablet combo for drawing? Do you have any pointers? */
It takes some getting used to, but it works well. I don't have too many
pointers except to practice practice practice with the stylus until you feel as
comfortable with it as you do a pencil. -dave
